Canadian well


Image scrolling 3D view

 

Regarding our buildings, we have enlarged our vinification cellars of red wines by adding eight additional tanks with pushing down equipments and for the white wines, we have also created a new cellar. These two cellars are around 8 metres underground.

 

We have taken into account the ecological aspect and have integrated the appropriate materials to the building of these new cellars; moreover, we have also taken up again a subterranean passage that our grand-father had created to drain water from the plateau to feed our wells. So we have extended it of about fifteen metres under the existing buildings in order to connect it with the open air, thus allowing an in-draught which will naturally air-condition our cellars as the temperature at 8 metres depth, is constantly 11°C, in summer as well as in winter. With this true Canadian well, we will be able to operate the natural air conditioning of the underground cellars we have created.
